Vasopressin–aquaporin-2 pathway: recent advances in understanding water balance disorders
The alteration of water balance and related disorders has emerged as being strictly linked to the state of activation of the vasopressin–aquaporin-2 (vasopressin–AQP2) pathway.

Trafficking mechanism of water channel aquaporin‐2 [PDF]
Targeted positioning of the water channel AQP2 (aquaporin‐2) strictly regulates body water homoeostasis. Trafficking of AQP2 to the apical membrane is critical for the reabsorption of water in renal collecting ducts. In addition to the cAMP‐mediated effect of vasopressin on AQP2 trafficking to the apical membrane, other signalling cascades can also ...

In vivo imaging of the tonoplast intrinsic protein family in Arabidopsis roots [PDF]
Background: Tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) are widely used as markers for vacuolar compartments in higher plants. Ten TIP isoforms are encoded by the Arabidopsis genome.

Renal transporters, which are primarily located in the proximal tubules, play an important role in secretion and nephrotoxicity of drugs. The goal of this study was to characterize the age-dependent protein abundance of human renal transporters.

Vasopressin and the regulation of aquaporin-2 [PDF]
Water excretion is regulated in large part through the regulation of osmotic water permeability of the renal collecting duct epithelium. Water permeability is controlled by vasopressin through regulation of the water channel, aquaporin-2 (AQP2).

Increased intestinal carbonate precipitate abundance in the sea bream (Sparus aurata L.) in response to ocean acidification [PDF]
Marine fish contribute to the carbon cycle by producing mineralized intestinal precipitates generated as by-products of their osmoregulation. Here we aimed at characterizing the control of epithelial bicarbonate secretion and intestinal precipitate ...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Apelin and its G protein-coupled receptor APJ (gene symbol Aplnr) are strongly expressed in magnocellular vasopressinergic neurons suggesting that the apelin/APJ system plays a key role at the central level in regulating salt and water ...

Several point mutations have been identified in human aquaporins, but their effects on the function of the respective aquaporins are mostly enigmatic. We analyzed the impact of the aquaporin 2 mutation V71M, which causesnephrogenic diabetes insipidus in ...

In ischemic stroke, vasopressin hypersecretion is a critical factor of cerebral swelling and brain injury. To clarify neural mechanisms underlying ischemic stroke-evoked vasopressin hypersecretion, we observed the effect of unilateral permanent middle ...

Bile Acid G Protein-Coupled Membrane Receptor TGR5 Modulates Aquaporin 2-Mediated Water Homeostasis.
BACKGROUND The bile acid-activated receptors, including the membrane G protein-coupled receptor TGR5 and nuclear farnesoid X receptor (FXR), have roles in kidney diseases.
